RE: Geology subject films

How about The Last Days of Pompei, Joe vs. the Volcano, or that Bogart film
set on a Pacific island (Darkness at Noon?). Also, I remember some grade B
volcano movie from the 50's in which a young maiden in sarong is supposed to
jump into or be thrown into a volcano . . . Then there's Under the Volcano.
Wasn't there a Samson and Delilah movie--Victor Mature, Susan Hayward--with
earthquake. And wasn't there a really old movie about the San Francisco
earthquake?

For sandstorms, you could do the sandstorm in The English Patient.

For weird weather, especially rain, there's a pretty bad Italian movie
(early Candace Bergen) called The End of the World in a Nightful of Rain in
Our Usual Bed and a really good Australian one (early Peter Wier) called The
Last Wave. And there are a ton of typhoon and hurricane movies. Probably
lots of flood movies.
